The ESK16(/M) kit contains our popular Ø1/2" posts, post spacers, and post construction accessories, appropriate for basic optomechanical setups as well as a range of axial setups. Refer to the Contents tab above for detailed information about the components included with the imperial and metric versions of the kit. This are ideally complemented with our ESK01 (ESK01/M) Bases and Post Holders Kit or our ESK14 (ESK14/M) Clamping Forks and Post Holders Kit.

Mounting OptionsThe kit can be stored on a tabletop for easy, convenient access or placed on an RK4101 or RK4102 rack shelf, both of which can be installed in our RK3884 standard 19" rack. The image to the right shows an ESK16 kit as well as another custom-labeled S19909 cabinet installed in a 19" rack. The cabinet used in each Essential Series Kit features slots in the rear of the case (see image to far right) for wall mounting and features indentations on the top and four feet on the bottom for stable stacking. Warning: each kit weighs 42 lbs (19.1 kg); ensure that the wall and wall mounts can support at least this weight before mounting the unit.

Kit Components

Each kit includes the components below and an S19909 9-Drawer Cabinet. In cases where the metric and imperial kits contain parts with different item numbers, metric item numbers and measurements are indicated in parentheses.

These kits are great, but why don't they include any post collars? These are the accessory I use most of. I would also include 20 mm posts, and maybe anti-rotation adapters, and relegate the V mounts to the 'optical mounts' kit.
